> One way QVS can help is with Gift Baskets….We have some baskets made up, or you can make your own or we will make up one for you based on your desires and price ranges…in all cases you get 10% off of the basket and everything in it..Start under $30 –perfect for a hostess or neighbor gift…We can do wine and chocolate, snacks, a pasta meal or most anything. If you want us to make it up, please allow one week. Email me or call the store.

> We have some wonderful things for small gifts…travel mugs that don’t leak, unusual magazines, local honey, local dried tomatoes and something for everyone’s taste. We have some great chocolate covered coffee beans in the bulk area—I think they would be cute in one of our white cups…but they also make a great reward for oneself when an item is crossed of the TO DO list.

For your decorating ease, we have the lovely wreaths from Serendipity. Many different styles…but you know the material was freshly and locally cut.

Lots of items are marked down now…we are getting ready to move stock around so we can stock some of Jeans liquor. Maybe as early as Wednesday. Please bear with us as it may be chaotic while things are shifted!

And for fun we are going to have a little gingerbread house contest. Must be made of eatable materials and be less than 12 inches in each direction.

This time we encourage you to stuff the ballot box because everyone can vote often for their favorite house…all it take is a penny..or more…but each penny will be one vote. All the money will be given to the Quilcene food bank. So vote often and lots.

A quick idea for a meal if you still have left over stuffing or mashed potatoes….fill a individual heatproof bowl with either warmed stuffing or mashed potatoes (or rice) make a depression and crack an egg into the depression. Add a spoon of milk/ cream or cheese and then bake at 350 until done to your liking….about 10 minutes. Good for any meal!
